# NumTrail vs Block Art

The clearest difference is ads: Block Art at none against NumTrail's shown. Block Art also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (321 vs 6). NumTrail's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 40%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NumTrail sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Block Art sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for NumTrail against 4.8 for Block Art. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Block Art has 321 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 50% of NumTrail's written reviews are positive against 40% of Block Art's.

NumTrail ships an update every 6 weeks, Block Art every 5 days. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
